Clitheroe Beer Festival 2023. Hazy mango-golden coloured with the fruit evident enough within its very sessionable texture. Very pleasant brew.

Bottle from local Morrison's. Pours clear gold with a white cap. Malt, maybe a smidge of caramel, honey, some citrus. Medium body with soft carbonation. A bit twiggy / mundane, but it's a new brewery tick.
